The Pits

The Pits
The day Captain Kramer, USMC, rescued a lonely pup off the streets in Afghanistan proved the turning point in both their lives. For Kramer it meant the filling of a great void left by the loss of his own lifelong buddy, Rusty; for the pup it meant a whole new identity as Corporal Shadow, a whole new and loving family – the US Marine Corps, but more importantly the unconditional love from his rescuer, Kramer.

Little did either realize that their devotion to each other would be tested to the point of life or death on the battle field and in the streets back home in America. $0.99 on Kindle.

Avant Nation

Avant Nation
Teenage Cognitive Technician, Clara Spinner, is sent on a mission to retrieve the memories of a traitor. A thrilling adventure, with a dash of romance, set in an eerily plausible future. Highly recommended by fans of The Giver, The Hunger Games and 1984.

“Avant Nation was excellent. It was fast paced and easy, but did not lack depth. As far as dystopian novels go, this is one of the better ones. I think one of the descriptions of the book labelled it as suspense, but I think horror is a more appropriate genre. While the book was not at all gruesome or spooky, it was a little too real for comfort. The world that Verhoff creates is entirely possible, especially given the advances in technology today…It brings so many questions of morality and ethics to the surface.” ~Alexis  $0.99 on Kindle.
